Apparently they just couldn't wait to make their appearance. They were born at 34 weeks exactly on August 16th, 2010. I woke up at 4am and thought I had peed the bed.. after 10 minutes, it became quite apparent that it wasn't pee, my water had broken. After waking Doug up "Doug you need to get up, we need to go to the hospital, my water broke" (never seen a man jump out of bed so fast) and getting dressed. We headed to the hospital. After verifying that my water had in fact broke, things moved fast.

Both girls needed a little assistance breathing at first and were on CPAP machines for help for the first 12 hours of life or so but have since both been weaned completely off of any oxygen assistance. They are currently both a little jaundice and are under the lights for treatment. Both are having issues getting their calcium levels high enough and Ember is having some issues slowing her respirations down. From what they say, these are all very typical behaviors for 34 weekers.
